The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has revealed ambitious plans to gain power in Congress and various industries.CAIR, which busies itself with accusing Americans of “Islamophobia,” has been a longtime supporter of Hamas. As early as 1994, CAIR National Executive Director Nihad Awad endorsed the terror group. Last year, he <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/12/us/politics/12muslims.html" id="">cheered</a> the October 7th massacre of some 1,200 Israelis by Hamas.Awad and CAIR co-founder Omar Ahmad both have ties to Hamas through the Islamic Association of Palestine. In 2014, the United Arab Emirates designated CAIR as a terror organization for its ties to Hamas’ parent network, the Muslim Brotherhood.In a speech at the East Plano Islamic Center last month, Awad bewailed the “deeply rooted” Islamophobia in the United States."There is Islamophobia [in the U.S.] that is so deeply rooted in the culture, in academia, in Hollywood, in the portrayal of Islam,” he said, <a href="https://www.memri.org/tv/cair-exec-director-nihad-awad-working-eliminate-change-public-school-textbooks-defame-islam-prophet" id="">according</a> to MEMRI. “For hundreds of years, Islam has been denigrated, the Prophet has been smeared and defamed in books and textbooks that were taught in public schools, that Allah be praised, we have been working to eliminate and change.”Awad unveiled the organization's plan to create an “army” of 50,000 academics, journalists, and lawyers to create pro-Islam narratives.“If we commit to do this, four years from now, the Muslim community will have 4,000 new journalists, we will have 4,000 filmmakers, 4,000 lawyers, 4,000 students of political science, 4,000 students of history,” he said.Within the decade, CAIR hopes to start carving out a major Muslim presence in the US government:“We can have in ten years, at least 40-50 members of Congress — in the US Congress.”<h2 id="">Radical Muslims in the US&nbsp;government</h2>Inquiries after October 7th have revealed the <a href="https://www.thegoldreport.com/news/islamic-groups-infiltrate-us-defense-establishment" id="">presence</a> of radical Muslims within the United States government, particularly within its defense establishment. As of today, the Department of Homeland Security <a href="https://www.thegoldreport.com/news/house-votes-to-reduce-pro-terror-dhs-officials-salary" id="">refuses</a> to terminate Nejwa Ali, an adjudication officer who outwardly celebrates Hamas and October 7th. Ali previously worked for the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) terror group.<h2 id="">Yousra Fazili</h2>The Department of Defense (DoD) is also refusing to terminate Yousra Fazili, a senior Pentagon official with strong ties to the Qatari regime which openly funds the Muslim Brotherhood and its subsidiary, Hamas. Qatar, which provides safe haven to Hamas leaders, also sponsors the pro-Hamas news outlet Al Jazeera.&nbsp;Fazili, who uses her private social media accounts to promote pro-Hamas demonstrations, serves as the Pentagon’s chief financial officer and chief of staff to the comptroller.&nbsp;<h2 id="">Ariane Tabatabai</h2>Wirkkala has also defended the Pentagon’s decision to employ Assistant Secretary for Special Operations Chief of Staff Ariane Tabatabai, who will keep her top security clearance despite being outed as an operative of the Islamic Republic of Iran.Emails <a href="https://www.semafor.com/article/09/25/2023/inside-irans-influence-operation" id="">obtained</a> by Semafor show that Tabatabai was part of an Iranian influence operation called the Iranian Experts Initiative (IEI). The IEI’s objective was to recruit overseas academics and researchers to help shift policy towards Iran, particularly regarding its nuclear proliferation — an objective considered to have been successful.&nbsp;Tabatabai was a core member of the IEI, which was overseen by Iran’s Foreign Ministry. She was reportedly in direct contact with senior Iranian officials such as then-Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif and a top Foreign Ministry official named Mostafa Zahrani, from whom she requested permission to attend international conferences.&nbsp;After joining the IEI, Tabatabai began writing articles for mainstream media outlets such as the Atlantic, Washington Post, and New York Times in which she promoted a nuclear deal with Iran. She <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/10/20/pentagon-aide-called-iran-spy-keeps-security-clearance/" id="">claimed</a> that Iran was seeking nuclear capabilities not to build nuclear weapons but for “production of radioisotopes for medical purposes” and for “desalination, an energy-intensive process.”In addition to writing articles, Tabatabai also went on the lecture circuit at various globalist think tanks such as billionaire George Soros’ Center for American Progress and the Council on Foreign Relations, where she advocated for a nuclear deal with Iran.Tabatabai also served as a key aide to former Biden Special Envoy to Iran Robert Malley, who was suspended in June for “mishandling classified documents.”

<h3 id="">Preface:</h3>This article is the first of several delving into MAiD (medical assistance in dying) in Canada. MAiD includes both euthanasia — when the doctor kills the patient and assisted suicide — when the doctor provides the patient with the means to kill themselves. Ostensibly, this is a compassionate way of ending someone's intolerable and untreatable suffering.MAiD was legalized in Canada in 2016. Assisted suicide and even euthanasia have been made legal in several countries so far; other governments are working towards passing such laws in their own countries or expanding the ones that do exist. Canada's MAiD, however, has seemingly run off the rails and is now available to those who are not terminally ill, whose death is not foreseeable. It is now regarded as a medical choice which doctors are required to offer to patients as they would any other treatment. Healthcare practitioners are required to notify the appropriate organ donor organization when a patient's death is imminent, including those of individuals who are considering MAiD; hospices, even religious ones, cannot refuse to kill their patients. Today, Canada leads the world in harvesting organs from people who have let the medical establishment kill them.While there have been numerous articles and videos published on the topic over the years, they have been spread out over a long period of time and they cover many different related aspects. This makes it difficult to see the forest — the enormity of what is actually transpiring — &nbsp;for the trees — the many different changes and aspects related to MAiD and organ donation. This series, to a large extent, attempts to reveal the broad picture of the rapidly expanding practice of legal killing. Among the issues discussed/raised are:<ul id=""><li id="">How has the definition of murder changed to allow for MAiD?</li><li id="">Is it compassionate to help/encourage someone to agree to being killed?</li><li id="">Can a person's life expetancy be reasonably predicted?</li><li id="">Is brain death a reasonable means of declaring death?</li><li id="">How do people who are killed by MAiD die?</li><li id="">What is different about MAiD in Canada that enables it to lead all other countries in organ donations following euthanasia and assisted suicide?</li><li id="">How do MAiD victims who agree to donate their organs die? </li><li id="">How are doctors compensated for killing their patients?</li><li id="">Are there monetary incentives to encourage people to allow themselves to be killed and donate their organs and would this be akin to the CCP's organ harvesting program?</li><li id="">What resemblance does MAiD have to euthanasia in Nazi Germany? </li></ul>As you follow the series you might consider the following:<ul id=""><li id="">How prevalent are euthanasia and assisted suicide</li><li id="">Can/should morality and ethics change with the times?</li><li id="">Is MAiD okay because that's what people want and nothing needs to change?</li><li id="">Does it need to be stopped and how can that happen?</li></ul><h2 id="">MAiD to kill</h2>Behind the veneer of medical respectability and personal choice, doctors and nurses can legally kill patients through MAID (medical assistance in dying), Canada's euphemism for euthanasia and assisted suicide which became legal in the country in 2016. <blockquote id="">Canada legalized euthanasia in June 2016. In March 2021 Canada passed Bill C-7 that removed the "terminal illness" requirement in the law, created a two-tier law by removing the waiting period for people who were terminally ill and adding a 90-day waiting period for people who were not terminally ill and allowing euthanasia for mental illness alone. Euthanasia for mental illness alone remains contentious and has currently been delayed until March 2027. </blockquote>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://alexschadenberg.blogspot.com/" target="_blank" id="">Euthanasia Prevention Coalition</a>‍‍<h3 id="">‍"If it's not a doctor doing it, it's murder"</h3>Since 2021, when Canada removed the prerequisite for the victim to be terminally ill, the country's assisted suicide laws have become progressively more liberal to the point that MAiD is being offered to people who want to live but need assistance, which the government is reticent to provide, as <a href="https://www.thegoldreport.com/news/disabled-in-canada-doctors-may-pressure-you-to-end-your-life" target="_blank" id="">reported</a> by The Gold Report. To <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3PbFCI7Jr2g" target="_blank" id="">explore </a>questions about MAiD, Unveil TV's <a href="https://unveiltv.com/pages/about" target="_blank" id="">Kooman Brothers</a> have produced a documentary series, "MAiD in Canada." For the documentary titled "If it's not a doctor doing it, it's murder," they <a href="https://unveiltv.com/programs/john-sikkema-full-interview-6fa5c4?offset=44&cid=" target="_blank" id="">interviewed</a> ARPA (Association for Reformed Political Action) Canada lawyer John Sikkema who explained why in any other context MAiD would be murder. <blockquote id="">John Sikkema, a legal counsel, highlights the strange line between medical procedure and murder as he describes the progression of MAiD in Canada in just a few short years and how MAiD allows patients to choose murder over suicide.</blockquote>In the interview Sikkema describes (@19:34) the thin line between legal and criminal actions created by this law. Before 2016, it was a crime for someone to encourage or help someone commit suicide and actually doing it for them was homicide, i.e., murder. Kooman brothers:<blockquote id="">Previous to the 2016 enactment . . . what would the verbiage be? Would it be homicide or murder to do what is being done in assisted suicide or euthanasia? How would that fit within the criminal code context?</blockquote>Sikkema:<blockquote id="">There are two offenses at issue in the Carter case [a 2015 euthanasia case which was the impetus for the 2016 law]. One was assisting suicide, so it's a crime to assist someone in committing suicide. It's also a crime to counsel or encourage someone to commit suicide even if you don't practically help them do so in some way. </blockquote><blockquote id="">The other law was homicide; intentional homicide, right, &nbsp;Homicide is simply ending a person's life or causing someone's death. And, actually, the vast majority, I think close to 99% in Canada of the cases, the euthanasia cases which are the MAiD cases are euthanasia. That is, were it not for exceptions in the criminal code they would be homicide, they would be murder. </blockquote>People are more reluctant to kill themselves than to allow a doctor to do it:<blockquote id="">Intentional homicide is, in the criminal law, murder, and that's because in most cases people choose to have the doctor euthanize them rather than to use the option of getting the lethal prescription and taking it themselves. Right? It's essentially easier to be passive, to show up and tell the doctor, yes you may end my life now, and to passively receive that, have the doctor do that to you. And in fact, in regimes where only assisted suicide is legal, the numbers are actually considerably lower, suggesting &nbsp;it's more difficult to kind of go through with it yourself, pressing the button or squeezing the ball that kind of adds the poison to the IV is more difficult to do it yourself. (Emphases added.)</blockquote><h3 id="">Killing as a "moral duty?" </h3>In 2019, Quebec was entertaining the idea of loosening the restrictions on euthanasia from allowing it only for people whose death was expected in the "foreseeable future" (an undefined term) to include people who had "cases of Alzheimer’s Disease, dementia, or other illness/disease that causes an individual to lose their faculties." As Suzanne Hamner <a href="https://sonsoflibertymedia.com/canada-moving-to-allow-human-euthanasia-for-certain-diseases-illnesses-while-bullying-hospice-to-murder-patients-as-part-of-palliative-care/" target="_blank">wrote</a> for The Sons of Liberty, the government was, at that time, also threatening to shut down a non-faith-based hospice if they didn't allow for euthanasia on site.<blockquote id="">Along with this was the Trudeau government’s legalization of human euthanasia in June 2016 that is now being used to threaten penalties against a non-faith-based hospice if the hospice fails to follow the government mandate and allow its patients to be “killed” on-site through the medically assisted death program.</blockquote>Hamner pointed out to readers that the argument had already been made that "[o]nce government can decide or determine when life begins or when newborn life is acceptable to murder, then government can decide or determine at what point life should end." She also reminded readers that Canada has government-controlled health care. She quoted the Montreal Gazette regarding the purported call by Quebecers for better access to death as a moral duty.<blockquote id="">A committee of experts is recommending the government expand the framework of a medically assisted death to include the concept of prior consent for serious and incurable ailments.</blockquote><blockquote id="">But Quebec will nevertheless launch a non-partisan public consultation process before deciding whether to proceed with the change, Health Minister Danielle McCann announced Friday.</blockquote><blockquote id="">“We have heard the heartfelt appeal of Quebecers who are suffering and calling for a widening of the rules,” McCann said at a news conference. “Quebec society is evolving on this sensitive issue and we have a moral duty to respond. all together.” (Emphasis added.)</blockquote><blockquote id="">. . . </blockquote><blockquote id="">The recommendation follows a Sept. 11 Superior Court ruling that granted two Quebecers the right to seek medically assisted death despite the fact they had been turned aside by physicians.</blockquote><blockquote id="">The judge, Christine Baudouin, gave the government six months to modify its law. It currently stipulates a person can have assisted death only if they are near an “end of life” state.</blockquote><h4 id="">No matter what you call it, murder is murder</h4>Hamner concludes with what would have once been the reaction of most of the population, that no matter what you call it, it is still murder.<blockquote id="">Anyone else wondering how many “Quebecers” actually contacted the government because of their suffering and are now calling for government to murder their loved ones or themselves? &nbsp;This is absolutely insane! &nbsp;Regardless of some pretend law, no medical professional should even consider participation in this Nazi-style population purge because it is illegal, since it is murder disguised under some terminology that has a hint of health care, and it is unethical. If this is what Quebecers call “evolving”, it certainly is evolving toward evil, not good.

<h2 id="">The mortal danger of misdiagnosis</h2>Assisted suicide and, to a more limited extent, euthanasia have been decriminalized in several countries and many US states for people who are expected to die within a short time.However, doctors often make diagnoses based upon the presenting constellation of symptoms without <a href="https://www.thegoldreport.com/news/does-a-diagnosis-explain-whats-wrong-with-you" target="_blank" id="">considering</a> why those symptoms are occurring. The underlying&nbsp;cause, of course, needs to be accurately identifed so that the doctor can treat the patient properly and correctly inform the patient the nature of their illness. Dr. Mark Hyman and Dr. Mark Liponis <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Ultraprevention-6-Week-Plan-That-Healthy-ebook/dp/B000FC0W1U" target="_blank" id="">addressed</a> this issue in their book "Ultraprevention" (chapter 2), explaining that a symptom, such as high cholesterol, can have different causes. <blockquote id="">What must be identified are the interrelationships between a given condition and a variety of other factors and conditions. . . . Our bodies operate like an old Rube Goldberg contraption in which moving one little lever in one location causes another to move, then another, and soon every other piece of the machinery is in motion.</blockquote><blockquote id="">For instance, the disease known as hypercholesterolemia (a high level of cholesterol) is often considered a likely cause of heart problems. But we believe that heart disease is a multifactorial problem, arising from such issues as inflammation, insulin resistance, oxidative stress, high levels of homocysteine (from a functional deficiency of B vitamins), occult infection (such as bad teeth or gum disease), depression, and/or stress. So when you’re labeled as having hypercholesterolemia, you’re liable to believe that you know your problem, and it’s a simple one. Not true. </blockquote>In order for a doctor to diagnose properly he must focus on the patient rather than the disease, Hyman and Liponis explain. That is the way they practice medicine, but it is not common practice.<blockquote id="">The difference between a diagnosis and its actual symptoms is similar to the variance between the current practice of medicine, which is disease-centered, and our model of medicine, which is patient-centered. We feel that, rather than just try to make a diagnosis, or assign a name on which to blame someone’s symptoms, doctors should try to identify and understand the factors that led to the development of symptoms or illness in each individual.</blockquote>What happens, however, when the doctor is disease-centered, relies on blood test results, and whips out the prescription pad prescribing, for example, a statin drug to reduce cholesterol? How frequently do doctors misdiagnose an illness as incurable when it is in fact curable. Could such a misdiagnosis cause a person to choose assisted suicide when they would reject that option if they knew there was a path to better health?<h3 id="">Statins' adverse effects appearing to be new illnesses?</h3>Statins are a class of drugs called HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors. HMG-CoA reduction inhibitors inhibit the Mevalonate Pathway which initiates many life-sustaining processes and products including cholesterol. If you believe that a new symptom you have may be related to the statin drug you are taking, you msy be quite right. When the HMG-CoA is inhibited by statins, as shown in the first image by <a href="https://www.q10facts.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Mevalonate-pathway-as-png.png" target="_blank" id="">Q10 Facts</a> below, we can see that the synthesis of <a href="https://spacedoc.com/articles/statins-and-coq10-deficiency" target="_blank" id="">ubiquinone</a> (CoQ10), <a href="https://spacedoc.com/articles/dolichols-personality-change-and-statins" target="_blank" id="">dolichols</a>, and <a href="https://spacedoc.com/articles/cholesterol-and-statins" target="_blank" id="">cholesterol</a> are all reduced; that includes anything they synthesize, as well. The inhibition of each of them has serious adverse effects on health. <figure id="" class="w-richtext-figure-type-image w-richtext-align-fullwidth" style="max-width:1003px" data-rt-type="image" data-rt-align="fullwidth" data-rt-max-width="1003px"><div id=""><img src="https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/66450044188dfe741d77c31e/66e187e0d205066fa5f9a01c_66e176ac8f3b9ee3ff0164a5_CoQ10%2520synthesis.jpeg" loading="lazy" alt="__wf_reserved_inherit" width="auto" height="auto" id=""></div></figure>The second, more complex, image by <a href="https://www.doki.net/upload/pszichiatria/newsimage/mevalonat_jelut01.jpg" id="">doki</a> below, shows that statins affect synthesis of vitamins such as D3 and K2, bile acids (affecting digestion), insulin (possibly causing Type 2 diabetes), sex and other hormones (steroidgenesis [sic]) (possibly affecting gender identity, fertility, and reproduction), bone formation (which could lead to osteoporosis), and more. <figure id="" class="w-richtext-figure-type-image w-richtext-align-fullwidth" style="max-width:1066px" data-rt-type="image" data-rt-align="fullwidth" data-rt-max-width="1066px"><div id=""><img src="https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/66450044188dfe741d77c31e/66e187e0d205066fa5f9a023_66e1779523109c952e0e2430_mevalonate%2520pathway.jpeg" loading="lazy" alt="__wf_reserved_inherit" width="auto" height="auto" id=""></div></figure><h4 id="">Statins and neurodegenerative diseases</h4>It's also important to know that HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors not only slow down or stop important processes but can also induce harmful ones. Statins induce abnormal tau protein phosphorylation which can lead to motor neuron degeneration, as Dr. Duane Graveline <a href="https://spacedoc.com/articles/als-and-statins" target="_blank" id="">explained</a> on his website Space Doc. Dr. Graveline died of statin-induced ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis).<blockquote id="">It seems that a consequence of the inhibitory effect of statin drugs on the mevalonate pathway is the induction of abnormal tau protein phosphorylation. Tau protein phosphorylation goes on to form neurofibrillatory tangles, long known to be the prime suspect in causing the slowly progressive neuronal degeneration of Alzheimer's disease.&nbsp;</blockquote><blockquote id="">Sometimes this process is accompanied by beta amyloid deposition but more commonly not. Research scientists are now finding that this mechanism appears to be true for ALS and many other forms of neurodegenerative diseases as well. They have even coined a new word for this, the taupathies.</blockquote><blockquote id="">Statin associated taupathies or tauopathies may well be additional gross evidence of collateral damage to existing cellular chemistry that researchers were unable to predict when they originally created statins. All this from a class of drugs originally designed simply to inhibit the biosynthesis of cholesterol, which is a vital substance now proven to be largely irrelevant to the atherosclerotic process.</blockquote><blockquote id="">Since we were warned by the&nbsp;World Health Organization&nbsp;back in October 2007, researchers have confirmed the special tendency of neurodegenerative diseases such as ALS in statin users.&nbsp;</blockquote>It became known in 2008, he explained, that people with ALS had significantly improved survival if they had high LDL cholesterol levels. <blockquote id="">Reuters&nbsp;reported on 28 April 2008 that elevated lipid levels (also called hyperlipidemia and high cholesterol) appear to significantly improve survival in patients with ALS. Investigators have found that when patients with ALS have a hyperlipidemic profile, their survival is much better. Further confusing traditional medical philosophy, when their LDL cholesterol level is high and HDL low, their survival is the best — just the opposite of prevailing medical opinion. (Emphases&nbsp;added,)&nbsp;</blockquote><h3 id="">Other drugs can have neurodegenerative effects, too</h3>Other drugs can also be responsible for neurodegenerative effects. Director of Pharmacy Services at Buffalo Psychiatric Center Tammie Lee Demler, BS, PharmD, MBA, BCPP, writes in the journal US Pharmacist, that new neurological symptoms are often diagnosed as a new illness. The emergence of new neurologic side effects of drugs heightens the challenges prescribers face when considering drug therapy. These side effects can result in potential misdiagnoses, including false psychiatric diagnoses, in the case of some drugs. Unexpected and unpredictable drug interactions can result in a confusing range of symptoms that may be identified as a new medical condition. (Emphasis added.). . . Changes in the central nervous system (brain, spinal cord) or peripheral nerves can cause a wide variety of symptoms, including loss of coordination and muscle strength, numbness, loss of consciousness, seizures, and paralysis (TABLE 1) [below].<figure id="" class="w-richtext-figure-type-image w-richtext-align-fullwidth" style="max-width:923px" data-rt-type="image" data-rt-align="fullwidth" data-rt-max-width="923px"><div id=""><img src="https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/66450044188dfe741d77c31e/66e187e0d205066fa5f9a01f_66e1850ea88a80c0a49a14d8_neurologi%2520complications%2520of%2520commonly%2520prescribed%2520drugs.jpeg" loading="lazy" alt="__wf_reserved_inherit" width="auto" height="auto" id=""></div></figure><h4 id="">Not just drugs</h4>Scientific World Info <a href="https://www.scientificworldinfo.com/2020/02/common-neurological-disorders-symptoms-causes-and-complications.html#:~:text=The%20causes%20of%20neurological%20disorders,zika%20virus)%2C%20fungi%20and%20parasites" target="_blank" id="">lists</a> other causes of neurodegenerative diseases in adults such as, <blockquote id="">. . . &nbsp;gluten sensitivity, brain injury, spinal cord injury, nerve injury, unhealthy lifestyle choices, or environmental health problems and infectious diseases caused by germs, viruses (ie, HIV, intestinal viruses, West Nile virus, zika virus), fungi and parasites.</blockquote><h3 id="">ALS - diagnosis or misdiagnosis?</h3>What would happen if you went to your doctor with symptoms of a neurodegenerative disease? Would s/he do all the testing needed to determine the cause? Or would your doctor look at your constellation of symptoms and tell you that you have a fatal degenerative motor neuron disease and months to live? That's what happened to one man whose story was recounted in an essay by Dr. Jack King in his book "Why they want to kill us," <a href="https://expose-news.com/2024/09/07/why-euthanasia-should-be-illegal/" target="_blank" id="">published</a> by permission on Expose News. The essay highlights the concern of misdiagnoses in light of euthanasia. When a person is diagnosed with a terminal illness and elects euthanasia before they become unable to care for themselves, how do we know s/he wasn't misdiagnosed? <blockquote id="">Patients often agree to euthanasia when their doctor has told them they have a terminal illness and will soon die. But what if the doctor(s) made a mistake? What if their illness was highly curable? Perhaps misdiagnosis is not an exception to the rule? </blockquote><blockquote id="">. . . </blockquote><blockquote id="">A 65-year-old man was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease and told that he was terminally ill with just six months to live. He was told to choose a hospice. He later found that his symptoms were caused by the statins he was taking. When he’d been told he was terminally ill, he stopped the statins and his symptoms disappeared.</blockquote><blockquote id="">. . . </blockquote><blockquote id="">These case histories are by no means unusual. In countries where assisted killing is in place there will, without doubt, be instances where misdiagnosed patients will choose euthanasia and will die quite unnecessarily. One of the main objections to capital punishment (a process which often takes many years and repeated examinations of the evidence) is the fear that a mistake will be made and an innocent person will be killed. The same objection can and should be raised about medically assisted dying. (Emphasis added.)</blockquote><h3 id="">Did an ALS misdiagnosis lead to euthanasia?</h3>The following CBC News: The National video shares the story of a Canadian man, Brian Wadsworth, who was diagnosed with ALS and chose to die by MAiD (medical assistance in dying) before he became too infirm. CBC News anchor:Wadsworth lived life to the limit. He didn't let much slow him down until he got sick on a sailing trip in Florida last winter.From Wadsworth's blog, read by friend Rob Molyneux:Last winter I began a new section on my blog. Things have changed very drastically for me in the last six months.CBC News anchor:Wadsworth was diagnosed with ALS or Lou Gehrig's disease. The outgoing adventurer's health deteriorated quickly, weakening muscles. Facing paralysis, Wadsworth wanted medical assistance in dying.Could his diagnosis have been wrong? Did his disease progress quicker than usual for ALS patients? Do people suddenly "get sick with ALS" or do they "first notice symptoms?"According to <a href="https://alsnewstoday.com/stages-of-als/" target="_blank" id="">ALS News Today</a>, the initial stage of the disease ordinarily lasts about a year (there are four stages), and because it takes time to get diagnosed they may have already passed that stage when they receive it. It is unclear at what point he received his diagnosis but he seems to have been deteriorating more rapidly than most during the first year.<blockquote id="">The majority of patients retain a fair amount of functionality and independence during the early stage of ALS, which typically lasts about a year. But because it often takes many months for patients to get a formal ALS diagnosis, many have already progressed past the early stage by the time the disease is confirmed.</blockquote>Since he "got sick" on a sailing trip, could it be possible that he got an infectious disease caused by an intestinal virus, fungi, or parasite from the water, which can also cause neurodegenerative diseases, as listed above? Did he suffer from the adverse effects of a medicine he was taking? Could he have been cured instead of killed?‍In short, should the quickly accelerating move to approve, and even push, assisted suicide be reconsidered? Should the healthcare industry focus more on underlying causes than on symptoms of illnesses?<div data-rt-embed-type='true'><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/24KaEe9Ue7Q?si=hbFiXHVDreyhoSnI" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>‍Related articles:<ul id=""><li id=""><a href="https://www.thegoldreport.com/news/does-a-diagnosis-explain-whats-wrong-with-you" target="_blank" id="">Does a diagnosis explain what's wrong with you?</a></li><li id="">‍‍<a href="https://www.thegoldreport.com/news/cholesterol-drugs-shrouded-in-secrecy-and-riddled-with-huge-financial-conflicts-of-interest-professor-peter-gotzsche" target="_blank" id="">Cholesterol drugs 'shrouded in secrecy and riddled with huge financial conflicts of interest' - Professor Peter Gøtzsche</a></li><li id=""><a href="https://www.thegoldreport.com/news/cholesterol-why-you-and-your-friend-might-need-different-levels" id="">Cholesterol - why you and your friend might need different levels</a></li></ul>‍
